Public Schools Offer Scratched-Cooked Pork With Maui Gold Pineapple
March 20, 2019
As the state Department of Education moves forward with bringing local food items to the student lunch plate, it continues to provide one scratch-cooked meal a month to all public schools, using a locally grown ingredient.
The product this month: Maui Gold pineapple, which will be turned into a main dish, sweet and sour pork.
The ‘Aina Pono Hawai‘i State Farm to School program kicked off the series of dishes in December with locally raised beef, then continued with banana, papaya and ulu (breadfruit).
The recipe for the pineapple-pork dish is easy to pull off at home and is relatively healthful, with fresh ginger, bell pepper and onion joining the fruit and pork in the pot.
